Yea these looks great...maybe like 25% lacking in the shine of gen (but much better than BTF on the subdials and hands). I might have to pull the trigger soon, I just wish there was some high quality side by sides to gen.


there are 3 mark of 116500 Ln black. the recent mark is very shiny, very similar to the Chromalight 116520 versions. the first mark had compass more dark gray. this one of clean represents one of the 3, exactly identical. of course platinum is unrivaled in brilliance, but this clean on the wrist is 99% gen like. and I am extremely fussy about this model. if i had a franken with dial gen i would have sold it immediately to get this.

I don’t agree. The numbers inside the subdials on the gen are closer to the edge more than the clean. Easy to see even on the wrist. The numbers on clean are in the middle

"The Best Clone" for just the recent dial, not over all :) CF case and crystal is not acceptable for me. BTF is better except its dial for now
it's true, I fully agree with you. BTF is a top tier in almost everything. But I have to disagree on glass, I don't like that 2AR of BTF glass at all, for my way of seeing it is very bad, you can see a lot that it is a fake glass. this BTF that I have in my hand instead has a great glass. but yes, BTF (case and bracelet) are superior to Clean

"The Best Clone" solo per il quadrante recente, non tutto il :) caso e il cristallo CF non sono accettabili per me. BTF è migliore tranne il suo quadrante per ora
For me Clean case hands and crystal are much better than BTF! The lugs of the BTF case are too slender, they are the same size as the case of a polished Daytona. The thickness of the lugs gen is fuller!

also the bezel of the Clean V3 version that I have is clearly superior to the BTF one I had in my hand

Still closer than the clean to me. 10, 20 are very noticeable
if I thought of the replica dials of this model made to date, I would be shivering with disgust compared to this one. we never forget that we are talking about Dial Fake and above all we never forget that we scrutinize them with 300x enlarged photos in search of defects. for me, having seen the gen live several times, I consider this dial an absolute masterpiece.

furthermore, your observation is not correct, if you offer the photos well, they have different angles. for this reason see 20-40-60 different from the other numbers, it is called "elevation angle"

Can you give some more details about bezel difference between BTF / CF please?

Bro. I don’t need to 300x enlarged like what u said. I said what i saw on my wrist. Of course this black dial is better than other reps but it’s not good as the white dial.

Two steps forward one step back! I was really excited about these up until I noticed the coronet. It's still amazing how far these reps have come in a decade

certainly, here everything is very subjective. everyone has their own degree of judgment, for example I don't care about the crown at 12 o'clock, for others it is fundamental. for me the Clean 116500 White dial is almost perfect, but its shiny counters and the blue effect (not improved in V2) are indigestible for me. despite this it remains the best Fake dial made to date. we remain with the idea and never forget that until a year ago we had noob speakers that were extremely fake when viewed in profile. everything gets better, but they can't bring out perfection, the world of watchmaking would be flooded with scams .. that's right for me.
